Third quarter 2016 revenue was driven by 61% growth from the Company's Emerging Products, which represent the Company's strategic growth drivers including UltraShape, VelaShape, PicoWay, Profound and CO2RE Intima. Third quarter Emerging Products revenue included $14.2 million in revenue from the Body Shaping portfolio, which grew 46% year-over-year, mainly from UltraShape sales, driven by the launch of UltraShape Power.

Third quarter 2016 revenue did not include any sales from the Company's dental laser subsidiary, which was sold in May 2016. In the third quarter 2015, the Company had $0.5 million in sales from the dental laser subsidiary.

Financial Highlights for the Third Quarter Ended September 30, 2016:

GAAP Gross Margin for the third quarter 2016 was 51.8%, compared to 55.3% in the third quarter 2015. Non-GAAP gross margin for the third quarter 2016 was 53.1%, compared to 57.0% in the third quarter 2015. This reflects revenue growth from international distribution channels, mainly in the Asia-Pacific and EMEA regions, differences in product mix, and higher product upgrade sales from recently introduced products, compared to the third quarter 2015.

GAAP Operating Income for the third quarter 2016 was $1.4 million, compared to a GAAP operating loss of $(7.1) million in the third quarter 2015, which included $5.6 million of intangible asset and goodwill impairments related to a subsidiary.

Non-GAAP operating margin for the third quarter 2016 was 5.3%, compared to 2.0% in the third quarter 2015. This increase reflects growth from the Company's higher margin Emerging Products, cost efficiencies, and revenue growth from the Company's existing international distribution channels, which has lower operating expenses for the Company.

GAAP Net Income and GAAP Earnings per Share in the third quarter 2016 was $0.6 million, or $0.02 per share, compared to GAAP net loss of $(6.5) million, or $(0.18) GAAP loss per share, in the third quarter 2015.
